Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky did not rule out the possibility of limited land exchanges during recent discussions with former U.S. President Donald Trump aimed at ending Russia’s invasion, according to a Wall Street Journal report that cites unnamed European officials. While acknowledging Ukraine’s constitutional prohibition on relinquishing territory, Zelensky was quoted as saying that “proportional swaps” could be explored, though the logistics of moving civilian populations would be highly complex. The remarks mark a nuanced shift from Zelensky’s earlier insistence that any territorial negotiations could take place only with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Wall Street Journal notes that Zelensky framed the land-swap idea as one of several potential avenues toward a settlement rather than a formal offer, and emphasized that Ukraine’s parliament and public would ultimately have to approve any changes to the nation’s borders.
